Approaches made for carnival events

Gosford Library, several arts groups, Gosford City Youth Council and other young people's groups have been approached to hold events in conjunction with the NSW Surf Life Saving Carnival at Umina Beach.

Gosford Council's director of community services Mr Phil Rowland has advised council of the approaches following a question by Cr Trevor Drake at the council's December 14 meeting.

Cr Drake asked to be advised of community events that were planned to enhance the carnival.

The council previously requested its community development section work with the organisers to identify community events that would enhance the championships.
